The so-called positive press has in some ways been more difficult to swallow than the negative.

I have writing songs on my own for about six years.

I don't think I'm abnormal and I think that lets people down.

I can bear a lot but not that pall

I give away CDs at shows if someone wants a CD but doesn't have any money. I wouldn't want to do that forever.

Never get so attached to a poem that you forget truth that lacks lyricism.

If I ever met Dolly Parton for sure, I would just not be able to say anything. I love her.
